Turaga Matau: Good or Evil?
Disclaimer: Read the Prologue
Chapter Six
The Voporak released it's beam and it was heading straight for Unity, Duty, and Destiny. Unity pulled out her disk launcher and fired a disk; it built up energy and released it as it hit the beam. The beam ricocheted off the disk and flew out of harm's way. Voporak began to approach the three, and they put their hands together, and formed a barrier that Voporak couldn't break through. Then, a dark energy beam flew into the shield and destroyed it, flinging the three warriors back onto the ground.
"You will not defeat both of us, young warriors." Makuta said as he walked in front of Voporak.
Just then, the Toa Nuva jumped in front of the three warriors.
"I'll hold off Makuta, all of you help Unity, Duty, and Destiny." Takanuva said.
Takanuva ran by Voporak with speed, only feeling age creep up on him in an instant as he passed. Voporak soon forgot about him and refocused his attention of the others. Takanuva locked staffs with Makuta, who had anticipated this move.
Takanuva jumped over Makuta and onto his back and stabbed his neck. Makuta let out a cry and quickly grabbed Takanuva's leg and threw him into a wall. Takanuva got up but his leg was hooked on Makuta's staff and Makuta thrust him over his head and Takanuva hit the ground, then Makuta did it again, and then three more times before finally grabbing Takanuva by the throat, and strangling him.
Voporak was approaching fast as Unity, Duty, and Destiny got on their feet. Voporak's beam was shot and Tahu guarded the three with his Mask of Shielding.
"How did it work this time?"
"It is because you helped others, not just yourself." Duty said to him.
Tahu looked back at Voporak, and it was almost upon them. Tahu's swords ignited, and told the others to attack Voporak all at once with their elemental powers. They did as told and pushed Voporak back a couple of feet. Destiny and the others got up and headed for safer ground, but Destiny stood firm.
"Destiny my brother! What is it? Is it time?" Unity called out to him.
"Yes sister, now we must use our gifts." Destiny answered.
"Toa Nuva, find safe distance!" Duty called out.
They did as told and sought shelter. Voporak was advancing fast, and Unity, Duty, and Destiny locked hands. They began to chant a language not even Nokama could probably understand.
They began to glow and were engulfed in a bright light. Voporak had to cover it's eyes and stood back. Metal smoothing against metal was heard, and then the light dimmed down. Where the three warriors once stood, now stood a mighty dragon extremely bigger than Voporak. The dragon was wearing what looked to be a combination of the Kanohi Avohkii, and the Kanohi Aki. The Great Mask of Light and the Great Mask of Time. It's sliver body and armor gleamed in the light of the fading sun. The dragon had two great wings that spread across the sky.
"What is that?" Tahu asked to himself.
The dragon overheard and looked at Tahu, the dragon spoke in a voice combined of all three warriors.
"I am the combined forms of Unity, Duty, and Destiny. All three of them combine to form me, Illuhangea, the Silver Dragon of Time and Space.
"Makuta, if you challenge me, I'll not lose, for I am your creator. I created you for the greater good of the island, but you have betrayed me. Now you can never be forgiven for the crimes you have committed. Now I must start over and never have let you get away from me. I will defeat you then seal you in time and space, where you can never harm another."
Makuta seemed to shiver and grimace, but Voporak stood defiant and began to charge at Illuhangea. The dragon began to beat it wings and push back Voporak, Voporak shook of the wind and shot it's beam at Illuhangea, who put up a massive frontal shield, and then looked down at Voporak with it's long neck and fired a beam from it's mouth, and was engulfed in the blast. The light surrounded it transformed it, and in it's place was a small Matoran, with it's same mask as before, but on a Matoran's body.
Makuta began to back up slowly.
Illuhangea lowered a clawed hand and scooped up Voporak.
"You are purified little one." he said to the little Matoran.
Then he turned to everyone.
"Every being we create started out as Matoran or Turaga, so I'll take him back to my island so he can become what he was supposed to be."
Then Voporak disappeared in Illuhangea's grasp and he turned to Makuta.
"Makuta, you will not be given such mercy, so prepare to be contained."
"No! I won't go!" Makuta shouted as he attempted a last ditch effort to keep himself alive.
He ran towards the dragon and threw his staff and Illuhangea caught it and broke it.
Then Illuhangea fired it's beam at Makuta and he disappeared in a dimensional vortex. Makuta's cry was heard as it left this dimension.
"Now…" Illuhangea turned to the Toa Nuva.
Illuhangea was engulfed in light and broke down into Unity, Duty, and Destiny.
"Toa Nuva, your journey is not over yet. You must help us restore the island to it's former glory. We wish to reunite all the islands spread around the planet, but if we bring it together with no notice of the ones on the island, evil will spread across the continent and war will break again." Destiny addressed them.
"You must destroy the evils that plague the island and then inform us, take this seeing stone." Duty said and handed the stone to Tahu.
"This stone will allow you to contact us and tell us of your progress." Unity said.
"Beware Toa Nuva, many evils lurk on islands that aren't just Rahi, but not all of Mata-Nui's Toa were transformed back into Matoran, there are many out there that need your help. Some islands have two at most, even one Toa helping the Matoran. Several islands have fallen to the evils Makuta had placed on those islands, and the Matoran ask for our help. We've taken care of some islands, but we've realized with the more power we use, our powers diminish. At the rate we're going, no Matoran or Turaga will be left save the ones we've gotten. So you'll have to help."
"How will we get to each of these islands? Surely we couldn't all glide over with our Masks of Levitation." Gali asked.
"We will provide a transport. It is similar to Takanuva's vessel when he first took on Makuta, but you'll all fit inside and it'll take you there on it's own." Destiny replied.
"When will it arrive?" Onua asked.
"In about three days, so get prepared for the long journey ahead of you."
Then Duty, Destiny, and Unity disappeared in a blinding light.
"Three days?" Kopaka asked.
"Not a very long time to get anything done around here." Pohatu said.
"Who will take care of the Turaga and Matoran while we're away?"
"They can take care of themselves, they should all go and live in the ruins of Metru-Nui, and all of them can survive down there without much threat." Gali said.
"Good, so we'll each go to our villages and tell each Turaga to head to Metru-Nui." Lewa said.
"We'll each meet back here in three days."
End
A/N: Sequel? Most likely, otherwise I would have to rewrite the story and do it all over again. So will the Toa Nuva be able to save all the islands? Will Makuta be back? What new Toa will they meet? Who knows? All I know is that this story is finished. Sequel? Review and I'll think about it.
